For Kamm is dissatisfied with the White Sox and Manager Donic Bush is dissatisfied with Kamm. The mutual dissatisfaction appar- ently had its inception at the start of the 1930 season when Bush abol- ished Ka*am’'s team captaincy and the customary $600 that went with it. Kamm immediately fell into a batting slump and Bush finally de- cided he was loafing and benched him. At the start of the August road trip, Kamm was left behind. Kamm was brought to the Wt of baseball history. He was pur- chased from the San Francisco club of the Pacific Coast Leaguc for cash and players reported to involve $100,000 or more.
